When Wen Yu arrived at Li Shanzhu's house, the room was empty and Ning Ning was not seen.
The landlord who helped him open the door said, "I told you, she's gone with someone."
"Who did she go with?" Wen Yu asked.
"No." The landlord lowered his head, looked at the cracked photo frame on the ground, and said, "Just this person."
The photo frames of the three people and their heads were blacked out. Wen Yu picked up the photo frames from the ground and asked him, "What is this person's name and what does it have to do with Li Shanzhu?"
"I don't know." The landlord shook his head. "Li Shanzhu rented the house for about half a year. He rarely came to live there himself, but..."
"But what?" Wen Yu asked.
"But every time he comes back, he has to carry two large garbage bags downstairs." The landlord looked at the photo frame in his hand, "I asked him, you don't live here, why is there so much domestic garbage? Laughed and didn't answer, but I know... He raised someone in it."
At the same time, the door of a clothing store opened, and Ning Ning came out with a shopping bag.
"Thank you." The man in the photo frame took a brand new peaked cap from Ning Ning's hand, put it on his head, pressed the brim down, and smiled, "This way, you won't be afraid of being recognized."
"Shan Shui." Ning Ning asked him, "Why did you cheat to death?"
Li Shanshui was silent for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "Why else, escape the debt."
Even a well-known painter, with a money-spending monster like Zhang Xinai, will soon be unable to make ends meet. Her desires for diamond rings, seasonal famous brands, and star-rated hotels seem to never be filled. Li Shanshui's savings are decreasing every day. In the end, he took on a huge debt to prepare for the Hawaiian wedding she wanted.
A pedestrian passed by, and Li Shanshui raised his right arm in a conditioned reflex. Ningning saw many wounds on his arm, scars left by sticks and even knives. The scars were old and new, crisscrossing each other. He blocked his face with his right arm for a while, and when the pedestrians walked over with a smile, he slowly lowered his arm and smiled at Ning Ning: "It's so embarrassing, I saw the wrong person."
"Who do you take that person just now?" Ning Ning asked, "The creditor?"
"Ah." Li Shanshui replied ambiguous, "Where are we going to stay tonight?"
Ning Ning's own house was the scene of the murder, and Li Shanshui's house could not be returned now. Soon after, the key was twisted in the hole, the door was slowly opened, and the light came on, illuminating the easel and plaster statue inside, and the two returned. In Li Shanshui's studio.
The first studio, the last studio.
Ning Ning glanced at the clock on the wall, it was eleven o'clock.
Looking at Li Shanshui next to him, he coughed twice with his back to Ning Ning, as if wiping something from the corner of his mouth, then turned his head and smiled at her: "Wait a minute, I'll clean up the room."
There was a sofa in the studio where people could sleep. He opened the cabinet and took out a blanket from it. He smiled and said, "There is only one blanket."
"I slept wrapped in a blanket, and you slept with me."
"Haha... Okay, but before going to bed, let's have a meal first."
I didn't go out to eat. The two of them ate beer and bento bought from the convenience store. Although the bento was warmed up in the convenience store, it was a little cold when I brought it back. It's just that neither of them seemed to mind. , finished the last bite of the meal.
"I'm a little overwhelmed, and I don't want to lie down so quickly." Ning Ning stroked her stomach.
"Then stand for a while." Li Shanshui turned his eyes to the easel next to him, "Can I draw you a portrait?"
"Okay." Ning Ning smiled.
Just like countless times in the past, she was his model and he was her exclusive painter, holding a paintbrush and standing behind the easel.
The phone kept ringing in Ning Ning's handbag, and Li Shanshui asked, "You don't answer the phone?"
"There's no need." Ning Ning glanced at the clock, it was the weekend in an hour, and the time for Zhang Xin'ai's death was approaching. Except for Li Shanshui in front of him, the murderer didn't think about it anymore.
After all, he has motives and has also put into a series of actions.
"That photo frame at home." Ning Ning looked at Li Shanshui, "The one who painted my face black is not Shanzhu, but you, right?"
"..." Li Shanshui continued to draw, rustling, rustling, the sound of the brush swiping across the paper, there was only a head on the paper, no body, and he was trying to blacken the face.
"When did you find out... about me and other men?" Ningning asked.
Li Shanshui tore off the drawing paper in front of him, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it aside, and replaced it with another piece of paper.
"In order to prepare the Hawaiian wedding you want, I have borrowed money from many people." The brush fell on the paper again, and Li Shanshui said calmly, "including Brother Hai."
When men get together, they like to discuss women, especially after drinking, the scale of discussion will break through the sky. That day, Brother Hai was drinking too much, and he was enthusiastically discussing his latest new love with him. How did he discuss it
"I recently got an actress."
"Oh? Who?"
"Zhang Xinai! Haha, I don't know if I don't sleep. I'm startled when I fall asleep. This is really a little goblin. She almost sucked her bone marrow out. I just wanted to play casually, but now... I'm completely obsessed with her."
"It's ridiculous, isn't it?" Li Shanshui smiled behind the easel, "I owe nearly five million in debt for you, but you sleep in other men's beds while I'm borrowing money everywhere."
He was clearly smiling, but with that haggard face, it made Ningning feel a little pitiful, but now she is playing Zhang Xinai, so she can only say to him as Zhang Xinai: "Don't do this, here I am. There's still some money, and I'll help you repay the debt..."
"Enough!!" Li Shanshui suddenly threw the paintbrush to the ground and shouted at her unbearably, "You still play me like a monkey? When have you ever spent money on others? It's all spent on yourself, you Never leave me alone!"
"Don't I care now?" Ning Ning was yelled at by him, but he shouted back unto be outdone, "I said, I will repay this debt!"
"What are you kidding me, five million, can you come up with it?"
"Of course… woo."
A blanket was thrown from the opposite side and covered Ning Ning's face. The snow-white blanket was like a shroud. The person was pushed down on the sofa, Li Shanshui's hands pressed over her face through the blanket, and she couldn't breathe or speak...
Meanwhile, in the police station.
"Five million?" Li Shanzhu showed a strange smile, "This debt has already been paid off."
The policeman on the other side was stunned.
The confession had already been recorded in the afternoon, but within two hours, a new situation was discovered. It seemed that there was another person living in Li Shanzhu’s house. This person was his older brother, who owed nearly five million in loan sharks to the outside world. A man who cheated and escaped debt.
He must hate Zhang Xinai very much, because the money was borrowed for her, and she cheated on him behind his back.
How much do you hate it? Now there is evidence that the person who called Brother Hai and Xiao Ke and revealed the details of Zhang Xin's love was Li Shanshui. Poison.
In the final analysis, the root of hatred is love, and debt.
"When did it pay off?" the policeman asked. "Who paid it for him?"
From Li Shanzhu's mouth, a name that surprised everyone: "Sister Ai."
"Is this strange?" He laughed, the more he laughed, the more vicious it became, "Sister Ai loves my brother very much, she likes a person who pursues excitement so much, and can fall in love with father and son, subordinates, master and apprentice at the same time, but she doesn't Touch me because I'm his brother."
"My brother also loves her very much, until I took out the half-naked photo of Sister Xiao Ai taking off her wedding dress and said that she sent it to me, he believed... In fact, I took that photo secretly, and I lied to him that it was Sister Xiao Ai. If you want to seduce me, our brothers are no different from others in her eyes, they are all for her to find exciting and happy prey."
"Actually nothing. She is just like him, waiting for this wedding for a long time, all his savings are thrown into this wedding, and all her savings are used to pay his debts..." Li Shanzhu leaned back on the chair, Looking up at the gray ceiling, his eyes were also gray, "After he died, she didn't cancel the wedding, and planned to go to Hawaii for the wedding by herself. Before that, she planned to break up with all her lovers. , huh, what a fool..."
The studio gradually returned to calm, and the people under the blanket gradually stopped struggling.
"...I'm a fool." Li Shanshui slowly removed the blanket and looked down at the breathless fiancee, smiling sweetly and bitterly, "Xiao Ai, do you know why I blacked out your profile picture?"
The door was suddenly knocked open, and Wen Yu and the police rushed in from outside.
"Don't move."
"Call an ambulance!"
Wen Yu stopped when she passed an easel.
It was a bust of Zhang Xin'ai.
There are a few balls of paper thrown next to it. If you unfold it, you will find that all of them are portraits of Zhang Xinai, which are blacked out before they are finished. Only the bust in front of me didn't have time to paint it in black. Although there were only a few strokes to outline the shape, when it was illuminated by the light, it was lifelike, looking forward to the brilliance, and every strand of hair seemed to be glowing, as beautiful as the god of love.
The painter seems to be using his brush to say: "My love for you flows in the brush, I see your eyes, I want to say I love you, I want to forgive you when I hear you speak. Only cover it with a blanket Your face, can't see, can't hear, can kill you with heart..."
Wen Yu looked away from the portrait and looked at Li Shanshui opposite.
He sat on the sofa in despair, the police came to him, he didn't respond, just stared at Zhang Xinai quietly, his eyes were empty and there was nothing.
"She's my brother's woman."
Inside the police station, Li Shanzhu looked at the ceiling above his head with the same empty eyes, and murmured, "I came for him, changed for him, and finally died for him... I have no way to replace my brother from beginning to end."
In the Life Cinema, Ning Ning opened his eyes.
… I used to open my eyes on a chair, but this time I opened my eyes in a rubble.
"What happened?" She looked around, and before she could stand up from the ruins, a pair of hands stretched out from the side and rudely lifted her off the ground.
The fox mask with long curly hair is Zhang Xinai.
"What are you doing?" A man's palm stretched out from behind Ning Ning, with a mocking tone, he slashed Zhang Xinai's hand, and the other hand pulled Ning Ning into his arms, a man wearing a jade mask Looking at Zhang Xinai, her eyes were as bright as peach blossoms as always, "The movie is over."
"No!" Zhang Xinai stretched out her hand and grabbed Ning Ning's arm: "You were murdered 362 times, why didn't you kill Li Shanzhu once! Even once! Just once! Shanshui and I..."
She suddenly burst into tears: "You can be saved."
Ning Ning felt a chill in her body, so that was her idea. If she doesn't say what she doesn't know, if she doesn't do what she doesn't do, she will definitely walk into the murder of Li Shanzhu, and then die infinitely and repeat infinitely. Such repetition will make Ningning numb, bored, and collapse. As long as Ning Ning can't stand it alone, he kills Li Shanzhu...
Then Li Shanzhu, who was supposed to be alive in the future, died in this movie.
"Even if Li Shanzhu dies, the fate of you and Li Shanshui will not change much." Shi Zhongtang's voice sounded aside, and said lightly, "No man can afford so many green hats, you were wrong from the beginning, If you want to change the future, the most important thing you should change is yourself…”
He smiled: "But it's useless to say this now. You have no tickets. As a masked person, you have lost your own protagonist ticket. You should know what will happen to you, right?"
